Dave Farrar

I’ll always remember us being on that Bloomberg panel with him Phil. Syndrome du petit homme.

💙🤍♥️😂😂

And the large grassy area outside Undergrad, initially desolate, but now full of vintage clothing stores, vinyl only record shops, multiple old school barbers. Known locally as The Retrograd Steppe.

Remove the “Lux” and there are fun fun times to come on the wordplay front Philippe 🇮🇹

How beautifully BlueSky. Sincerely, allow me to say “Bravo Phil” mon ami. Careful with all of this class and humility, though, or else there’ll be no career in the sports media for you 😂💙

Isolationism is also not restricted to Americans, Philippe. Normally agree with you, broadly, but this veers a bit too much into “irrelevant rant” territory. For me anyway 💙

Spot on Philippe. Sadly happens all too frequently.

Memories of the time that Matt Jackson’s visitor pass named him as “Match Action”………

Fair point, Philippe, although I think that her failure to identify a Baudelaire line would be quite low down on the list of the issues I have with her. An oasis of horror in a desert of boredom…..

It’s such a shame to see Ruben Selles leave. He has done the most remarkable job in the most difficult circumstances. Impossible to blame him though, biggest surprise is that he has stayed this long. Wish him nothing but good things.

Such desperately sad news about Terry Griffiths. A fine player, and an underrated one. Could so easily have won more than one World Title. I was fortunate to meet him once, and he was kind, generous and very very funny. Lovely man. He’ll be much missed.

Felt sorry for Dynamo Kiev last night. Never a good emotion during a commentary. That’s now 5 UEL defs out of 5, and they were poor, although they’re doing well just to be playing of course. Desperate. Makes me think wistfully of that amazing 99 side, one of my favourite ever football teams.

Went there once. Won’t go again, struck me as a bit of Mickey Mouse operation……

The most heartbreaking allegations surrounding the Tash Harding Academy are the stories of children who were enrolled to help with self confidence and self esteem, just what sport should be doing. I hope clubs and academies can step in and offer those children affected the sessions that they need.

You too mon ami. Really nice to see you pop up. In person soon, I hope!

This is brilliantly reported Philippe. Left me open mouthed. Fascinating.

Went on the BBC World Service yesterday to discuss Italy v France, and was introduced as “veteran Commentator Dave Farrar”.

Veteran. Like a dagger through the heart. 👨‍🦳

That looks like a grand old team to play for……enjoy the day!

Blimey. They’ll have had more content rich Sunday mornings 😀

Me too Callum. Bluesky PR campaign. The club had one set of marketing tactics, now they’re altering ‘em.
